Khloé Kardashian’s Khloud is expanding its Canadian retail presence through a nationwide launch at Starbucks Canada, bringing the functional protein snack brand into the country’s quick-service restaurant channel. Beginning September 29, Khloud products will be available at participating Starbucks coffeehouses across Canada, with Starbucks becoming the first and only quick-service restaurant in the country to carry the brand.
The rollout will introduce two of Khloud’s popcorn varieties in single-serve formats, 'Sweet & Salty Kettle Corn' and 'White Cheddar.' Positioned near checkout, the products provide customers with a convenient protein-focused snack that can be purchased alongside Starbucks beverages and other café offerings.
The partnership extends Khloud beyond conventional retail environments while broadening Starbucks Canada’s packaged snack assortment. Additionally, the launch reflects growing interest in accessible, protein-forward foods designed to integrate functional nutrition into everyday snacking occasions.
